More From Rita Dove
- "Without imagination we can go nowhere. And imagination is not restricted to the arts. Every scientist I have met who has been a success has had to imagine."
- "I thought, after the Pulitzer, at least nothing will surprise me quite that much in my life. And another one happened. It was quite amazing."
- "I see a resurgence of interest in poetry. I am less optimistic about the prospects for the arts when it comes to federal funding."
More In Trust
- "Few delights can equal the presence of one whom we trust utterly."― George MacDonald
- "I love actors, both my parents were actors, and the work with actors is the most enjoyable part of making a film. It’s important that they feel protected and are confident they won’t be betrayed. When you create that atmosphere of trust, it’s in the bag – the actors will do everything to satisfy you."― Michael Haneke
- "As soon as you trust yourself, you will know how to live."― Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
